Chicken Roast Dry

Sometimes I like dry dishes a lot. Made this when I felt like having one. I made it in my Mums style. Thanks Mamma for teaching me the basics of cooking.

Chicken Roast Dry Recipe

 Ingredients:

  • Chicken – 500g cut into medium size pieces
  • Onion – 2 big
  • Kashmiri Chilli Powder – 1 tsp
  • Red Chilli powder – 1/2 tsp
  • Green Chilli – 2
  • Turmeric powder – 1 tsp
  • Coriander powder – 2 tsp
  • Pepper powder – ½ tsp
  • Garam masala – 1 tsp
  • Ginger garlic paste – 3 tsp
  • Curry leaves – 10
  • Chicken stock/Warm Water – ½ cup
  • Tomato – 1
  • Oil – 5 Tbsp
  • Salt

To Marinate:

  • Chilli powder – 1 tsp
  • Kashmiri chilli powder – 1 tsp
  • Turmeric powder – ½ tsp
  • Ginger garlic paste – 2 tsp
  • Lemon juice – 1 tsp
  • Salt

Method:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • Mix all the ingredients to marinate. Add little water into it and make it to a paste.
    Add cleaned chicken into it and keep it in the fridge for half an hour.
  • Heat oil in a nonstick pan and roast the marinated chicken until its golden brown in color. Remove it from the pan

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • To the same pan add sliced onion and curry leaves.
  • When onion turns golden brown in color (it takes 15-20 min for this) add ginger garlic paste, green chilli and saute for a min or two.
  • Add kashmiri chilli, red chilli, pepper, turmeric, coriander, garam masala, salt and saute for a min.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  • Add roasted chicken and mix well. (If you want the curry to be really dry you can cook with the pan covered for 5-6 min and stop with this step. If you want the curry with little gravy and like the taste of tomato continue with the rest of steps. Both ways the curry taste great)
  • Add 1/2 cup of warm water/chicken stock and cook covered for 5-6 min.
  • Add sliced tomato and cook for another 5 min.
  • Serve hot with pulao, rice etc.

Tips:

  • Use non-stick pan for cooking as it help to reduce oil consumption
  • After putting onion in the nonstick pan, cook with the pan covered as it helps to become onion golden brown fast.
